Thank you sir And definitely stay away from inflatable shit! I remember one night at the camp site one of my friends had an epic fight with one of those mattresses and the mattress win it
Why cut it? It’s foam, it smooshes (squrish). You might accidentally create the beginnings of a pillow and at least keep yourself from activating windows/locks. Most of the video was stuff you didn’t need to do. I like your base. Glad you did the video and happy it works well.
That was interesting. Good to hear that it works for a 6'4" guy. A little over that myself, so I had concerns about length. Still wondering if you could enlarge into front seat area to get even more space.
You could remove the front seat and sleep front to back for more length. But it's also going to depend on what kind of electronics your truck has. I could not do that in my truck
I'm getting ready to start on this today. I already have a mattress from a hospital bed. I'll be installing a portable AC first which will be in the corner behind the driver's seat so I imagine that my feet will go at that end. I might remove the front passenger seat and run the bed that way, but I'm going to try just the back seat for now.
LET ME TELL YA SOMETHING,....if it wasnt for you and your little trick with the zipper, I would still be foolin with that thing until Tuesday of next year!!!!...lolol
@@micaheldred6610 no it just means that you can't split your time up with sleeper time and you can't Have a team driver sleeping back there and be off duty
May the force be with you.
Thank you sir

You can also use an electric knife....like butter!
My wife has told me if I touch her electric knife one more time she's going to use it on me.

Excellent video! Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks for another great video.
Good video Tim, I was wondering how that all worked. Thanks

FYI, for future, use an electric carving knife for cutting foam mattress. :)
A small battery with a piece of wire can be used to cut the foam as well.

That's just a standard zipper with the handle removed. That's why you have to lift and pull by the handle to unzip anything...
Turkey knife !
Yo quiero ese asiento se le sacaste a la camioneta me sirve para la mía en argentina
Saw an RV hauler with a 2 door F550 and a truck camper pulling bumper haul RV's.
@@TravelinTim Seems like a good idea.
Liked the video...what is the size of mattress? Width??
It's not 75 min length to be a DOT approved berth. So, what does that mean? You're not supposed to sleep back there or??

I love it.
I tried putting my bed that high but I can't sit up back there.
I'm a geek, so I got the reference. ;)
nice!

What a waste
Waste? I don't understand.
